Does Gemstone Jewelry Hold Any Significance?

What are gemstones?

Gemstones are generally another form of minerals that is available as crystals, which are highly budgeted for their benefits, endurance, scarcity, and beauty. Since the invention of human civilization, gemstones have been adorned the most. The popularity of any gemstone lies in its outlook, for example, color, shades, the change of colors under daylight, etc. Also sometimes a gemstone could be attractive if it can give the wearer a positive and relaxing vibe. Since ancient times the prime requisite for wearing a gemstone has been to solve the problems of our complicated lives. A gemstone should be definitely durable and it should have a proper pattern, texture, and luster. 

History of gemstone jewelry?

Since the era of the Vedic, Mayans, and the Aztecs, gemstones were considered to have miraculous and mysterious power. Various stones were endowed with different kinds of features and attributes, for example, a sapphire is all about reliability and stability, but on the other hand, a lustrous ruby is all about royalty and nobility. The math of finding gemstones says that among 2000 minerals only fewer than 100 gemstones have been transformed into crystal stones and only 16 of them got popular. Vestiges of these beliefs are continued in modern society too; today also it's a common scenario for a newborn baby to wear birthstone jewelry.
